The law which establishes the possibility for the creation of a corporation was created by politicians working at the behest of the rich who wanted to do things together, pooling financial resources for a larger cause. The theory (I suppose) was that society would gain more than it gave up to let these rich people have 'limited liability'. Well, we've seen many abuses of child labor, bad working conditions, off-shoring of jobs and tremendous corporate lobbying of politicians (probably should be illegal) which allow them great power in the economic-financial system. The following links list some recent problems.

There are many others, but aside from the usual corporate bashing, which is required, I thought it would be interesting to show something positive.
